[quote=Anonymous]If I knew the middle school algebra 1 honors teachers were going to come to the elementaries to teach it to the 6th graders, or even that the 6th graders were going to all walk over to the middle school for 1 class, I’d be all for it for my kid. I’m scared at how it’s going to actually be implemented. I’m scared that when the people teaching it haven’t seen higher level math since high school, they won’t know how to teach to prepare for algebra 2 and precalc. It will be tricks and memorizing vs understanding. My child is SO excited to try it (and they’ve never been interested in school before since it’s so “boring”) so we are going to give it a go, but I’m nervous and prepared to support and extend the instruction at home.[/quote]
